Oh God, I'd rather not have to look at myself in the mirror
Help me get up when the world just wants me down
The days took on a very strange shade of bitter
You hurt me a lot and then you threw me against the walls

Just fade away I'm trying to hold on
It's hard to lift your head up, when everything goes wrong
Do I have to live haunted by the ghost of guilt?
Ashamed and thrown in the gutter
You got me into the habit of taking some pills

The stars will fall on my head tonight
I hope my parents and brothers take my side
At least they won’t throw me to the lions
'Cause I know when is hurting, I can't count with their silence

Just fade away I'm trying to hold on
It's hard to lift your head up, when everything goes wrong
Do I have to live haunted by the ghost of guilt?
Ashamed and thrown in the gutter
You got me into the habit of taking some pills

It's dragged and sore the way it's unfolding
Darkness tries to be my best friend
As long as I can't like anything
You had me right in the palm of your hand

Just fade away I'm trying to hold on
It's hard to lift your head up, when everything goes wrong
Do I have to live haunted by the ghost of guilt?
Ashamed and thrown in the gutter
You got me into the habit of taking some pills
